In a post on Facebook late Monday, Crystal Cup organizers announced the event for children between the ages of 5 and 18 will take place on the last day of the Crystal Cup, February 25, 2018.

Davis passed away just before Christmas. As soon as Davis and his family moved to Fort St. John, Sid joined the Fort St. John Minor Hockey Association and started coaching various teams. According to FSJ Minor Hockey “, He was a players coach; once you had him, he was invested in you. He followed the players’ progress through their various divisions and teams. He would shoot a text of encouragement or suggestion for improvement. He was inspiring!”
